The Winds of Change!
Today, two new nations have been borne from the salt of our united Magyar commonwealth; fellow realms beyond the seas benevolently stewarded by our glorious sovereign, Matthias III. The Federation of the Sahel (drawn from the former-colonial Territories of Soudan, Ubangi, Chad and Dinka), and the Sarnate of Assyria (borne of the Territory of the same name) shall together stand as new and welcome members to our fraternal Jagiellonian brotherhood.
The motives for such waves today are plainly clear, as they have been in the long and arduous months leading up to this moment. Their peoples are at last ready to be carefully handed the mantle of stewardship over their own lands. Their leaders have been carefully trained and groomed for this very moment. And rising Carsonist agitation in the Southern reaches shows now is the time to act and take the wind out of the red menace’s sails. Independence within, is any day far preferable to agitation, insurrection and god forbid revolution without.
His Imperial Majesty, who has spent the past week on a grand imperial tour stretching from the pleasant shores of Tripoli to the deepest deserts of the Sahel, is expected to invite Ephrem Khalil to become the first Kush (Palatine) of the Sahel. Khalil is a loyal former Askari - the crack battalions of native troops who have proven so courageous in face of often insurmountable odds against savage Carsonist and Ratist rebels. He later received extensive civil education at the University of Szeged, and has long been groomed by the Colonial Service for a role in the new state bureaucracy. Later this week, His Majesty will further open the first Federation Diet in the new Sahel capital of Khartoum, where Khalil will be pivotal in the seamless transfer of power.
Meanwhile in Assyria, Soterious tou-Assad has been named as Assur (Palatine) of the new Sarnate. Soterious is a member of the deep-rooted Greco-Arabic Assad family, a noble line which heralds from Alawistan to Damascus. As Assur, Assad is expected to receive His Majesty in Damascus next month when he will continue his sweeping tour of the region.
Each nation is to be constituted as independent Kingdoms within the personal union of the Jagiellonian Sphere. His Imperial Majesty shall thus henceforth arise as King of the Sahel (and hitherto King of Nubia, King of Kanem, Malik of Bornu, and Malik of Kerma), and Sar of Assyria (Malik of Aramea, Battos of Damascus). In these duties, he shall endeavour to do his utmost to serve the peoples of Assyria and the Sahel - his loyal subjects, so much equals to those in Bohemia, Rumania or even Buda.
